]was thinking it was arm9
It is an ARM926EJ-S core which is an implementation of the armv5 instruction set.

can't read that fast..
have an image of the last screen i can see:

using this to boot:
Code: [Select]
kernel linux/zImage.tns
cmdline root=/dev/sda earlyprintk debug console=tty0 console=ttyAMA0,115200n8 rootdelay=10
boot

think i need to use sda1 :s ill test that..

nope.. still the same panic, using an ext4 usb flash drive.

Hi
I've a problem when booting Linux / it works with only an initrd image and the root fs on /dev/ram. But not when I'm booting on USB.
Here my start script :

kernel linux/linux.tns
initrd linux/initrd.tns
cmdline rootdelay=10 root=/dev/sda1
boot

It seems to boot fine, but then, after "Start logging...", I get two errors : Can't open /dev/null No such file or directory, about 5-6 times. Then, every second, I get Can't open /dev/tty0 No such file or directory.
And I must reset the calculator.

Without initrd, I get the same kernel panic as floris497 (USB stick has an unique ext4 partition, and yes it's /dev/sda1, I verified when Linux was running OK on /dev/ram).

Please help me :)

Probably you got the wrong kernel, without devtmpfs.
You need the "expandedconfig" for it.

No, I was using the expanded kernel :)
I don't know why, but now it's working - I've just a bit changed my boot script.

So.
Now Linux boots fine and the root fs is mounted.
But I get this when different services are starting (logging, rsyslog, network, nfs...) :

Starting NFS statd: done
Starting NFS services: done
Starting NFS daemon: rpc.nfsd: Unable to access /proc/fs/nfsd errno 2 (No such file or directory).
Please try, as root, 'mount -t nfsd nfsd /proc/fs/nfsd' and then restart rpc.nfsd to correct the problem
done
Starting NFS mountd: Cannot register service: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection refused
done

At this point, nothing more happens and I can't log in or type commands.

You can disable NFS by rm-ing /etc/init.d/rpc.nfsd

Yep, I had the same idea.
I removed 'S60nfs' (not rpc.nfsd) in /etc/init.d.
No error messages, but the console becomes inactive juste after "Starting sshd: OK". Just the blinking cursor, but no prompt and login...

Maybe it's started somewhere else? Can you try init=/bin/bash as cmdline? If that doesn't work append "console=tty0" as well.

Thanks, it seems to work !
Juste some strange things : when starting bash (via init or by command), he says : "bash: no job control in this shell".
Or when I try to launch top : "top: no process info in /proc".

But it works.
Thanks for your help :)

Hm, how do you do to start X ? I can see xeyes, xclock and others but no startx or xinit.

EDIT : hm, endly there's a problem ! The file system is read-only... :/

startx should be there...
You can mount it read-write by doing "mount -o remount,rw /".

I'd suggest "mount -t procfs procfs /proc" but that would fail as well, so "init 1" or "init S" may be the best option to skip misbehaving init scripts.
Which root are you using? I'll have to fix it...

I'm using the rootfs from http://tiplanet.org/nspire-linux-builds/ (where your website is redirecting).
If you have the courage to fix this fs, tell me when it's ready :D

Hello  :)

I'm new here and a big fan of Linux. I got it to boot with initrd as well as from usb flawlessly. Now I want to boot into ArchLinux:


This is why I need to build the kernel myself, but it won't work for some reason... What I did:
Downloaded this https://github.com/tangrs/linux (branch: nspire)
export ARCH=arm
make nspire_defconfig
make -j8
no errors -> copied it to the calculator and tried to boot with initrd -> stuck at the linuxloader2-screen without a single kernel-message

Second attempt:
rm .config
make distclean
export ARCH=arm
wget https://raw.github.com/Vogtinator/nspire-linux-configs/master/kernel/.config
make -j8
no errors -> stuck again at the same point

Can someone help me please?

thanks in advance
schuhumi

PS: stole the distclean from here: http://tiplanet.org/nspire-linux-builds/log_expanded_20130211_0728.txt  Sadly I can't find the build-script producing it...

Don't use that kernel, it's outdated. Use the device tree kernel, from kernel.org. And remember to set CONFIG_CGROUPS, as the message says.
